Is this good for applying to face for softer and acne free skin?

I wouldn't use it on my face simply because it is very sticky. For acne, the best treatment is a ZINC supplement. It may take about 6 weeks before you see any results because it's natural and must get into your system, but it works to clear the acne and make beautiful skin. Just eat the honey. It's delicious!

Personally, I have never used the product for that purpose. This is what WebMD (http://blogs.webmd.com/healthy-skin/2012/03/fruits-vegetables-honey-and-your-skin.html) reads: Speaking of honey, researchers are increasingly studying its use in wound care. All honey has antibacterial properties, but manuka honey from New Zealand and Australia can be exceptionally healing, depending on its origin and processing. For those who have never tried it, manuka honey is dark and has a strong, distinctive taste that can take some getting used to. Antibacterial activity is measured in an index called the Unique Manuka Factor (UMF). The higher the UMF, the more effective the honey is supposed to be - and also the more expensive, because pure manuka honey is always pricey. I recommend a manuka honey with a UMF of 16 or higher. High UMF manuka honey works both to prevent skin infections and to clear chronic skin infections. A recent study showed that it is effective on streptococcus, pseudomonas, and staphylococcus bacteria, even on antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. There are even manuka honey bandages on the market. I've become a big fan of manuka honey. Last year I had a patient with a bad staph skin infection and open wounds all over her body. I tried everything, including the usual antibiotics, and nothing seemed to work. Finally I ordered gauze impregnated with manuka honey and had her use them every day. In two weeks, her infection had cleared up with no scarring. So it may be worth keeping a jar of UMF 16 manuka honey in your cupboard. Like all honey, it will keep indefinitely, so what do you have to lose? Bottom line: Fruits, vegetables, and manuka honey can all be powerful allies to your skin. Personally, organic apple cider vinegar reports to provide softer skin and mitigates acne.

NO, if you want something incredible for your face and body use pure raw organic coconut oil. Test a small area first {always test before using something new}. I love it and so does my skin. The honey is the best on the market and I love it also..........on toast especially.

I don't see why not. It is gentle enough for your face but would probably be great on the rest of you also!

It's a little rough for the face, so if you use it on the face, use it very gently. I use a facial scrub or mask when I want to exfoliate the skin on my face.

Its good for any types of skins but it can be a little drying on the skin. Personally I wouldn't use it if my akin was already dry. I hope I answered your question

I have never used it except on my face so don't know. You might try searching on the web for more info on that question.

I think it's meant more for your body, but if your skin isn't super sensitive, you could probably put it on your face. I use a separate face lotion called Crystal Faces by Australian Gold, and it's amazing and works great as an everyday moisturizer as well!

I have sensitive skin that breaks out easily when it is irritated by face care products. I can say that this product did not cause my skin to break out with acne.

Yes, it can be used for face and body. It's especially a good lotion for the face as it doesn't leave you feeling greasy.

I think that just depends on your skin. I use this daily on my face, after applying a mix of dampened baking soda (followed by) apple cider vinegar, which seems to soften the skin (as opposed to using after just water or some other kind of facial/body cleanser). It has improved my skin quality on my face.

Yesss, It is very helpful, it also helps spots on the face, you can apply in the night. This Helped me a lot, It has a strange smell, but is lost when you apply it on the face.

It definitely isn't a face wash but I use it instead of washing my face so I can remove my makeup every night. My face is really dry right now and doesn't like to be washed. (Just finished Accutane.)

I mainly use it for my body not my face but I am 22. It is too harsh for my face on a daily use. If I have a bad one then I'll use it on my face in that specific area. But I would give it a try you get a good amount in the tube seeing as you don't need much per use.

Yes it is. I have sensitive skin and also oily areas on my face. You don't need to use very much, just a small dab. It goes a long way. I hope you give it a try!

Yes! It's gentle and won't irritate your skin. I actually prefer to daily skin cleanser rather than the gentle, but they are both great. Sometimes I use daily to remove makeup, and gentle in the morning. I highly recommend it. I also recommend Vanicream face lotion for acne prone skin.

It's a good product. I use it on my face and keeps my skin soft. Helps with acne. Overall I give it a A grade.I will keep buying this product.

I would say yes. It covers my flaws well. Then I may put foundation over it after it drys. If you have a lot of acne, try Neutrogena Clean and Clear foundation. It's a bit heavy and their colors aren't the best but it's formulated with medicine that helps get rid of acne. I use this Maybeline stick for my dark circles, then touch ups. Easy to use and I'll keep buying it as long as it's available.

Yes, this is why I bought it. I have found that by using it for body & face I am less itchy & it is gentle on my face.
